Newham Mental Health Support Team (MHST)

The MHST comes under Newham Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) – part of the NHS East London Foundation Trust. They work with mental health partners across Newham. Schools that are part of the project agree to work closely with students, parents and carers to hear their views and needs. This is so that, together, we can make best use of the strengths and resources in Newham. 

The focus is on students with early signs of anxiety or challenging behaviours. An approach known as ‘guided self-help’ is used to help parents/carers to understand and address these signs. This happens in 8 weekly sessions. These sessions provide a range of strategies that have been researched and found to be effective.
